She found me bleeding in the shadows and chose to save my life.
A stranger. Innocent. Too good for the world I'd drag her into. I told myself I could keep her close without destroying her. I was wrong. When my enemy came for me, he used her to do it. I believed him. I locked her away in the dark, not knowing what the dark does to her. By the time I learned the truth, I ran back to her. She was on the floor when I opened that door. Bloodied footprints circled the floor. Her body curled small and still. And when I reached for her, she made sure I'd carry her mark on my face forever. Good. I deserve far worse. She survived me once. Now I have to convince her to survive me again. For fans of obsessive heroes, brutal betrayal, and grovel arcs that devastate before they heal. A dark Bratva standalone. Guaranteed HEA. No cheating. He falls first and hardest—and he will bleed to prove it. Narrated in duet style.
